I recently saw my sister (18, > 15 years younger than me) doing this and it made me so unbelievably anxious. Like, don’t you care that IF you lose that thing you lost every fucking thing? The thought of all the bureaucracy gives me the sweats…
Edit to add: I’m from Germany. I need to carry a variety of plastic cards.
The only thing I had to block was my credit card. I did do it with my smartphone, but I could have done that from a computer. I’m a millenial but I just don’t trust my phone, like a boomer. I’m the kind of guy who still uses checks regularly (although it’s kind of a cultural thing, Frenchies do love their checks).
No, I mean it’s all digital. Back in the day though I had one of those phone wallets though. Still have one for traveling out of state. Idk. In ~25 years I’ve never lost either. Knock on wood.

she probably didn’t had to go through the pain of that. Yet.
I lost my wallet recently. It was no better than if she lost her phone…
My phone has a lot of second factors I need to lock my cards / accounts. Losing both would still be worse to me.

Checks are so insecure. All the info needed to steal your money is printed right there on the front
But that’s just digital versions of physical cards. You lost a copy.
